Scalp Oil is a totally natural hair & scalp treatment, formulated as an alternative to synthetic treatments and shampoos which can strip natural oils from the skin and dry out sensitive scalps, aggravating conditions such as scalp psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis, eczema or dandruff.
This gorgeous blend of different oils - herb-infused oils of nettle, calendula and chickweed, antimicrobial and stimulating essential tea tree and rosemary oils, incredibly nourishing hemp and borage seed oils - gives hair and skin exactly what they need to stay clean, healthy and hydrated. You can use Scalp Oil as an intensive overnight conditioning treatment for the whole scalp or apply just to areas that need some extra care.
Although it’s called Scalp Oil, this is actually a brilliant oil which has so many other uses all over the body!
As a beard or hair oil: with its invigorating, herbal scent of tea tree and rosemary, it makes a really great conditioning beard or ‘tache oil, smoothing, moisturising and softening facial hair of any shape or size!
As a foot rub: because we use naturally antimicrobial rosemary and tea tree oils, this blend makes a fantastic massage oil for feet that get hot, sweaty, itchy and tired! Keep toes and other areas clean and fresh with daily applications of the oil.
As a topical rescue oil: fantastic for all kinds of skin emergencies because it’s so incredibly rich in nutrients and is packed full of naturally anti-itch, antiseptic, antibacterial essential oils. Dab onto areas that need some TLC without the harsh synthetic ingredients. Great for reducing blemishes or purifying the skin.
As an inhalation oil: add several drops to a bowl of steaming water to clear stuffy heads and noses
Pro-parent anti-nit tip: it can even help ward off those annoying little visitors and is excellent for smoothing hair out for comb-throughs.
Scalp Oil is totally free from parabens, petrochemicals, preservatives or perfumes, which makes it perfect for dry skin and also suitable for people who may be prone to eczema, itchy, flaky or sore scalps, scalp psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis and other dry skin conditions.
Suitable for all skin types.
